Re: $17.95 Downgrade Fee? What a joke.

How were you getting the cost down to $53. I have classic Cable and broadband for $90. Are jetting just the local channel pack for the $8 or whatever it is currently.
I would assume he is going with Basic Cable for 8.00 and Broadband for 44.95 which totals 52.95.

To comment on the topic
I don't think the fee's are good bussiness unless someone is abusing it like Iggy stated. I was paying my bill the other day and heard a guy wanted to remove his premium movie channels, the CSR said it would be a 27.00 fee to downgrade.

Re: $17.95 Downgrade Fee? What a joke.

Yeah, I agree. It's a reasonable charge if the customer kept upgrading and downgrading (which I never have). ...and maybe that's why theres a charge for everyone now. ...It just "feels" like a gouge and I just needed to vent.

And yeah, it comes to 52.95 from the 44.95 broadband and the 8.00 basic package.

Re: $17.95 Downgrade Fee? What a joke.

I will sya if they ever tell me I have to pay a fee to downgrade they can wank off and I will switch to Satellite for tv service and go back to DSL for internet even at a loss of bandwidth ( though I would at least have a much better quality connection than I have right now.) , that is not right. I will concede that abusers of the system is one thing, but if at somepoint I chose to no longer have HBO, why should I pay a fee?
